Saturday, 12.29.12

Warm Up: 800m Row, a bunch of stuff

Conditioning: "Filthy Fifties"
For time:
-50 Box Jump (24/ 20 ")
-50 Jumping Pull Ups
-50 Kettlebell Swings (35/26#)

22:40 rx'd

This is like a 4 minute PR from last time. I was pretty happy with it except for I lost some time on the jumping pullups becasue I realized I didnt fully extend my arms after the first 10 reps, so I started over. Lost about 20 seconds from that most likely. Next time my goal will be sub 22.

Friday, 12.28.12

Warm Up: 1200m Row, wall walks, air squats, good mornings, broad jumps, banded pull aparts

Strength: Crossfit total

-Back Squat: 205x1, 220x1, 232x1 (PR) This is a +12 pr

-Shoulder Press: 106x1, 107x1 (fail), 107x1 (fail) My PR stayed the same

-Deadlift: 300x1, 310x1 (fail), 305x1 (fail) This is -15 from my PR

232+106+300= 638 (This is -3 from my last total)

UGH. Frustrated. But I really have not been doing much strength training since I had the baby 4 months ago today. 916 did not focus on strength as much and I lost a lot of what I had. So now that I am back at the compound I know I will get my strength back. My total will be much better next time.

Thursday, 12.27.12

Unexpected rest day. I brought my step brother in and coached him and I never got to do a workout =( Tanner started getting fussy and I ran out of time. So then I continued to eat like crap the rest of the day.

Wednesday, 12.26.12

Warm Up: 800m run, lots of other crap.

Conditioning: "Victoria" 5 Rounds for time of:
-10 Thrusters 95/65
-14 Box Jumps 24/20
-12 Sumo Deadlift Hi-pulls 95/65
-12 Burpees
27 Russian Kettlebell Swings 53/35

18:28 rx'd

Started out WAY too fast and did the first round in 2:15. There was no way I was going to keep that pace up. After That I split most of the movements into 2 so that I could catch my breath. I made sure to only rest for about 3-5 breaths so that I was not resting too long, and that seems do be a good stategy.

Afterward I did some snatch practice and worked muscle up swings.

Monday, 12.24.12

Conditioning: 5 Rounds For Time
-20 Dumbbell Clean and Presses (two 30lb dumbbells)
-30 Situps

20:?? rx'd

This was a home workout since the box was closed, so I did the best that I could do with what I had. It was a really hard wod, I tried to make it similar to Kalsu, but no on the minute every minute or burpees! (so I guess its really not Kalsu at all.....). Tomorrow I will most likely go running since its Christmas and the box will be closed again.

Recent PR's

It's pretty difficult for me to keep up with this blog lately because of my two crazy kids so there are probably going to be several posts like this one in the future. I am not going to try to post what I have done everyday since my last post, but here are some of my PR's on lifts and benchmark workouts.

Deadlift: 270x3 (easy, shoulda gone up), 260x5 (easy, should have gone up)

Thruster: 145x1

Double Unders: 105

Power Clean: 155x1

Bench Press: 125x1

Fran: 4:23

Fight Gone Bad: 373

5k: 23:45 (PR for crossfit, but no where near what I did in highschool!)

I also started using the 62lb kettlebell in my warm ups last week.I am going to attempt to use it in a full wod hopefully next week sometime if we do kettlebells.
